Most Ob/Gyns in Canada Don't Do Abortions

A survey of Canada's obstetricians and gynaecologists has found that more than half do not perform abortions, and more than half of these doctors do not do them due to their personal beliefs, reports the Medical Post. Of the respondents, 60.6% said that they do not conduct abortions. Respondents could indicate more than one reason why they did not do abortions. The largest reason cited was personal beliefs, with 50.5% of those who do not perform abortions indicating so, meaning that over one third of total respondents do not conduct abortions due to personal beliefs.

Editor: I'm curious as to whether Canada's national health service requires doctors to do abortion make referrals, or if they have conscience rights. The article doesn't say.
